I finished my blocks for the Saturday Sampler class last night. I sure hope I get better at these flying geese by the time this class is done. I used two different sewing machines. My advice for the day: use the same sewing machine for the whole project.

I took a little break from customer quilting today to work on my embroidery machine, cooking chicken piccata and a little cleaning. Now back to quilting!

Every now and then I get something done for myself. It took a few weeks, but I actually have it done early for Easter. Now to finish the 4th of July banner I started last year before this 4th of July would be great. I currently have 26 quilts for customers...I better get busy on those first!

I used to quilt in the basement of our old house. I so appreciate seeing outside now, even on a day like today. It is beautiful from inside the warmth of my home!
